When it comes to the consoles, games are what matter. Yes Xbox has Halo, their flagship game but PS3 is no stranger to exclusives. Games like Uncharted, God Of War III, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet and Grand Turismo 5 are all PS3 exclusives and are easily the top games of the year. I definitely pick PS3, because personally, because I want my console to work, the 360 fails with it's nightmare red rings of death in normal conditions, and well, the PS3 can't be killed under even the most extreme gaming conditions.

360 is now using a lost HD format, while PS3 comes loaded with Blu-ray, and a whole lot more cool stuff. Heres how well to put it ... Ps3 = blu-ray, no scratches unless your and idiot that just throws your games on the floor. 360 = double the scratches because microsoft rushed the 360. Plus the Ps3 is waaaay cheaper than the Xbox / 360. Built in Wireless Adapter: Xbox 360~no, PS3~yes
Able to play multiplayer: Xbox 360~not without gold membership, PS3~free all around.

Xbox has much more to offer than just Halo. There is Forza, Gears of War, Left 4 Dead, and the new Minecraft game. I have had 2 xbox 360s (original Elite, and new slim) and neither has ever crapped out.

There is also the kinect, which is much superior in uses and technology to the PS3's "Move"

Can you back up that the xbox gets double the scratches?

Also, the new Xbox Slim has a wireless adapter built in.

And as of online, you get what you pay for. The xbox online community is larger and has better gammerzones (family online, casual, or pro). Then there is the party chat system for Xbox. You can freely talk to your friends no matter what game you are playing (except for some Call of Duty game modes). Can't get that on Playstation. I would say that the Party chat alone is worth the $60 per year (also the amount of a single game)

No offense, but it sounds to me like the 360 is for people with more friends.

But let's not forget the the personal information that was stolen from the 77 million PSN accounts Durring the 2011 PS3 hacking.

Now go on google, and you'll see dozens and dozens of people asking how to fix their scratched up xbox. As so you cant see many involving PS3.

Oh and your talking about xbox slim, read the title, 'Xbox 360 (including live) is better than PS3. There is a party chat at playstation plus also. Doesnt make a difference? Oh and why would you pay 60$ a year for a party chat since you can talk to your friends for free through the Ps3?

There has been gamers caught in an xbox fraud, and many people are reporting to having their accounts hacked on the Xbox.

'Wait its called an XBOX 360 SLIM! I think that counts as a 360, just another model of the 360'
You think it counts as a 360? You cant 'think' when your debating. You need proof. Not just an opinion. Would you like to prove that party chat on playstation plus cost $50 a year? Even if it did, its still much cheaper than $60. P.S. Play station plus comes $50 with exclusive games. Not party chat. You can also talk to people worldwide on playstation HOME. Comes with avatars also. I bet the Xbox doesnt.

Oh and let me show you a big complaint of an Xbox SLIM user.

'The Symptoms and steps taken by me:
-360 takes a significant amount of time between the startup screen and the Dashboard appearing on screen - Over 40 Seconds
-Instead of the Dashboard loading, I am presented with the 'Create New Profile', 'Recover Profile' Screen.
-I instead select 'Skip Sign-In' and proceed to 'System Settings' and then 'Storage'.
-360 can apparently detect the installed 250GB Hard Drive. However it is reading as Unformatted.
-Using a Sandisk Xbox 360 16GB USB Drive, I am able to recover my Gamer Profile.
-Upon selecting 'Storage' within 'System Settings' once more whilst in my Gamer Profile, the Xbox 360 Freezes until I hold down the Guide Button on the Xbox 360 Controller and the 'Turn Off Console' option appears. Cancelling this option, the 'Storage' Screen loads and the USB Drive is detected by the Xbox 360 but the 250GB Hard Drive remains 'Unformatted'
-Now, I did purchase a replacement 250GB Hard Drive and that seems to be working fine. The issue however is with the data that should still be on the Faulty 'Unformatted' Hard Drive. In particular, Save Game Data for the 'Mass Effect' Series. With Mass Effect 3 so close to release now, I'd hate to have lost my Commander Shepard that I've been using since the series began over 4 years ago.'

You said that there is party chat on Playstation Plus, which costs $50 per month. "There is a party chat at playstation plus also".

I added these things called "LINKS" they are the proof. Here is the same link again to prove that it costs $50 a year for Playstation Pro, which is the only way for you to get party chat. http://us.playstation.com...

As i apologize to my opponent for mixing playstation home with playstation plus. Again, i do not know that an xbox does have an avatar because i dont HAVE an xbox. Im on the playstation side, remember? And the youtube link that you put up does not have anything to do with an xbox. But a video does show up of a drunken man getting punched in the face. Interesting... And why do you think the person faked the incident? Just for attention? Just for random answers? He obviously didnt just get it from his brain. Your acting like an Xbox never fails to shut on, or have any problems within.
Again as you can read the whole complaint, http://forums.xbox.com...

Interesting debate. I would like to challenge you in a similar argument as this.

My favorite attribute about Xbox360 over PS3 which its commonly looked over is that when playing music from your PC through Media Center (which I hate) or TVersity (which I love) Xbox will automatically mute in-game music (which is tediously repetitive if not utter crap). As opposed to PS3 where Sony made the decision to let game publishers make the decision which is like shooting monkeys in a barrel... of COURSE they want you to listen to their crappy music, its big business to get soundtracks in the publish of the game.

Reasons for voting decision: Con made quite a few accusations that proved incorrect and pleaded ignorance, losing conduct.
Arguments go to Pro, as Con dropped pretty much all arguments in the final round, instead making a big deal about how she didn't quite know what she was doing and strawmanning a broken link that is easily fixed.
Either way, I'll defend the Wii against either of you.
